Seed Library: Wild Harvest
Explore the natural abundance growing in and around the City of Timmins. Join fellow nature enthusiasts for a roundtable discussion about wild fruits, nuts, edible plants, mushrooms (where appropriate), and medicinal plants found in our region—not just raspberries and blueberries!

Share seasonal finds, habitat clues, and responsible foraging tips without revealing your favourite secret spots. Whether you're an experienced forager or just getting started, this informal discussion is a great opportunity to learn from others and discover more of the wild harvest our community has to offer.
